Biography
I am a Senior level architect and developer and have lead the development of several highly successful project.

On the open-source side, I am the primary architect and developer of GeoPHP (geophp.net). I was responsible for both the overall design and most of the implementation. This library has been deployed approximately half a million times and is the world's most popular PHP library for doing geometry operations.

I have several open-source Go projects "on the go" including CryptoBallot (cryptoballot.com) and DeadCI (deadci.com) and enjoy pushing the boundaries of my knowledge.

As a competent technical leader, I have guided teams of engineers, and have experience shepherding complicated software projects through to completion.
